Downsides to creatine? I've watched a few youtube videos

going bald
no visible effect on muscle/size

stopped using cuz of that

it honest to god no bullshit thinned my hair out, especially around the temples/made it less thick overall. this was after being on it for like 6 months straight at first I thought I was balding or something.

never ever touching it again

>>40299378
did it grow back?

>>40299343
There's some evidence that it may exacerbate hair loss if you're predisposed to it. You retain water on it, and thus look more muscular/bigger. Overall it's cheap and no real downsides, it's the only other supplement i'd buy besides protein powder.

only thing that works but makes you go bald.

Ahh fuck. I already have thin hair and a receding hair line. I don't want that shit to get thinner.

Fucking surprising how no one on youtube has mentioned hair loss. Fuck youtube.

there is still some loss on temples but unnoticeable unless I shaved my head. Some cocnut/jojoba oil/biotin helped I think. Hair is back to being thicker.

Had to buy protein powder w no creatine tho

it barely helped me w strength gains anyways. But im weak as fuck desu so didn't miss taking it.

You're better just using caffine pills unless you have some really fucking problem retaining water.

BioMed student here.

If your dad is balding, you are going to be balding, end of story.

working out, building muscle = more test = more DHT = more hair loss/thinning.

you can't escape it, but only you can delay it.
